Bringing People Together Through Food and Hospitality
With over 30 years in hospitality and private chef services for discerning clients, I’ve refined my craft to balance creativity, precision, and a deep love for cooking. A proud member of Slow Food USA® and a graduate of The Institute of Culinary Education in New York, I’m passionate about creating unforgettable dining experiences built on genuine hospitality and attention to detail.
More Than Just a Meal – It’s an Experience
I cook from the heart, knowing that food has the power to bring people together, create joy, and make lasting connections. Whether serving in your home or curating an immersive dining experience, my focus is on delivering exceptional service while staying true to sustainable, locally sourced ingredients.
New American Cuisine – Comfort with a Modern Touch
My approach to New American Cuisine blends classic comfort with refined, globally inspired flavors. Every meal is thoughtfully crafted—whether a reimagined favorite or something bold and unexpected. Paired with carefully selected wines, craft ciders, and signature cocktails, every meal is an experience designed to leave a lasting impression.
